Hello, Arinç

realtek-mdio is an mdio driver with a couple of less properties. They
do share a lot of stuff. But I don't know if I can fit the schema
validation into a single file.
YAML files are not simply documentation. They are used to validate DTS
files. But that's still off-topic. Let's finish SMI version first and
then discuss
if the MDIO version should be standalone or merged with SMI.
